Sentence examples for based on phenotypic selection from inspiring English sources

Compared to conventional breeding based on phenotypic selection, the MAS technology saved us at least 2 years in the breeding of WH6725.

As the heritability of the hip score was on the low end (0.21) of reported ranges, we propose that selection based on breeding values will result in more rapid genetic improvement than breeding based on phenotypic selection alone.

Traditional breeding in hop is based on phenotypic selection of superior genotypes within segregating progenies obtained from crosses.

Slow progress has been made in improving the agronomic traits of this species using traditional breeding approaches based on phenotypic selection.

Potato breeding efforts, which have historically been based on phenotypic selection, would benefit from marker-assisted selection and more opportunities to shuffle the genome to create new variation.

Traditional plant breeding is based on phenotypic selection of superior genotypes among segregating progenies, and its effectiveness is often affected by environment and genotype-environment interaction.

The increase in index accuracy from including genomic information was also relatively low when selection of PB animals was already based on phenotypic information from selection candidates and their relatives (including CB).

Results of the deterministic simulations revealed that GS schemes show a greater reduction in response due to the Bulmer-effect than schemes with selection directly based on phenotypic information (i.e. without the use of pedigree information), such as mass selection or selection on the mean of a progeny group (Table  1).

The model results provide some early insights about the consequences of selection based on phenotypic information upon underlying genetic parameters.

Bernardo and Yu (2007), however, reported that simulated selection based on phenotypic value alone in the first cycle was at least as successful as an index value combining phenotypic values and marker scores.

If large reference populations cannot be obtained, GS will reach relatively low accuracies, and may yield no or relatively little additional response compared to traditional selection on EBV based on phenotypic information.
